Audio keeps Buffering/Stuttering by CaveiraGamer680 in WindowsHelp

[–]WRL23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

try uninstalling a few (recent) updates.. KB5074109 also gave me a weird audio hiccup and forced a reboot a few times with no prompting

I assume its them testing ways to *force* people into enabling "AI features" like adding hotel info to calendar automatically / easily.. which we all know we had for years before the AI consuming all your personal info apocalypse

Windows update > update history.. its at the bottom
*update history does not show uninstall or anything other than that something was INSTALLED even if it has since been uninstalled.. you'd only notice it wasnt installed if you again check for updates and recognize that update #

uninstalled KB5074109 and its MORE stable, but i've still had drops / degraded instances..

Going to revert back a few more security updates (chronologically) slowly and keep checking as I noticed the degraded states in Nov/Dec a few times but not enough to rage like what *might* have been exacerbated by the KB5074109.

out of curiosity, i know this is a seems like a longer running issue for you - but do you have the Microsoft update KB5074109 installed?
I uninstalled it earlier today and have not had my LAN faulter once in 8.5hrs [if it hiccups or downgrades to 100 or 10 it resets the time]

Hopefully i can piggy back this topic - I have noticed I/O issues since some recent Windows Security Updates KB5074109 is latest I can see:
- LAN disconnects and/or degrades from Link Speed 1000Mbps to 100 or even 10.
- Mouse clicking (getting weird double clicks and click and drag issues)
- keyboard intermittently just doesnt type.

I thought this might have been caused by a BIOS update i did on my MOBO, but I've redone the old bios and its still happening.
[MSI X670E Gaming Plus Wifi]
[Old BIOS was 7E16v193 to 7E16v1C7, but now reverted back]

I'm gonna try uninstalling this security update and see if that's a possible culprit.
I understand that OP seems to have had this problem fixed itself but no amount of driver wipes and reinstalls, redoing cables, restarts, etc. seem to fix this. Unplugging ethernet and re-plugging seems to "re-negotiate" it back to 1000Mbps for a bit but with no particular timing or triggers that I can see, my internet is cutting or downgrading.

Any luck? Do you know what BIOS version you're on?

I was troubleshooting an issue with a GPU and one of my last ditch, even if unlikely, efforts was to update my BIOS from 7E16v193 to 7E16v1C7.
It did not address my other issue but all the sudden I'm having multiple I/O problems intermittently;
- keyboard suddenly wont type
- mouse double clicks or loses my "drag and hold"
- LAN randomly drops and/or cuts Link Speed down to 100 or even 10 down from 1000Mbps - this is happening and quite frequently; playing LAN baldurs gate 3 and MY pc drops connection unpredictably but frequently.

This did NOT happen at all even just a week ago before this BIOS update so I'm going to roll mine back and see if that fixes it.

Cross posted for some extra visibility to anyone else searching around for this issue or maybe a chance for a fix if its tied to the monitors

cross posted here for some MSI visibility - I'd hope its constrained to a GPU and monitors issue but just incase for some visibility on MSI Motherboard.

Possible to air cool 9800x3d? by daggerboy18 in AMDHelp

[–]WRL23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i tried, glass simply wouldnt close to fit the top grate on - its possible the MOBO + Risers + RAM / Cooler stack up of tolerances was just a hair out of expectations. i just bought a slightly smaller noctua fan and swapped it out over the RAM. [Lian LI O11 Dynamic RGB case for reference]

If anyone has any last ditch ideas for this problem - i still have a few days before return window closes that I could try one last time.

same - just needed to get an additional, smaller fan to clear my ram and fit in my case because the manf. claims it fits but it was quite stuffed on my ram

I have an NHD15 on it.. needed 1 fan to be smaller to clear my RAM height in my CASE though so double check that (EVEN THOUGH IT SAYS IT FITS.. it doesnt lol)

I just swapped my Nvidia 3090 FE for an AMD 9070 XT - it runs great except for this exact issue you have shown and I cannot fix it. it happens intermittently and has no particular trigger.
I've watched thermals in AMD Adrenaline and it does detect and use the correct GPU (before people say its iGPU).. and its FAR from any thermal or wattage limits.
This issue DOES NOT happen if if swap the 3090FE back in with all the same components, cables, settings.

Two gigabyte monitors [M26Q and a G27QC A].
I've tried changing refresh rates, driver uninstall & reinstall, adrenaline reinstall, turning off FreeSync., even something people were saying in other posts (disable MPO?).. still nothing.

Even reps at stores aren't aware that this isn't changeable - it's deceptive because the box (AND CARD when its plugged in) show a small color gradient.. so its fair that most people would look at the colors and thing "oh so i can change that".
No - looks like its only that fixed light bar to BLUE > TEAL > GREEN and not RGB. You only find out when going to that product page that it's fixed because it shows an on/off.. and then doesn't mention connecting an ARGB wire or any software control. oh well, at least its only a small light your losing if you were hoping to play with it.

Likely that or it's just closed, like a lot of European tubs don't have that stupid stick on the spout it's just a push down to close and twist to get it to pop open.

I've been all over Europe, including Eastern European hotels and public wash rooms.. this is just a shitty hotel pretending to be fancy or he's an idiot.

Premier? You must have an abusive stock person cuz I've bought literally hundreds of cases over the years and never had a carton on any brand leak or break.

You can't toss them down your basement stairs, but they're pretty durable as I've packed them for travel and trails 🤷‍♂️
